Product Description
Dr. Mikao Usui developed the Reiki System and founded the original Japanese Usui Reiki Ryoho Gakkai organization. This book shows you the original hand positions of Dr. Usui's Reiki Handbook. It has been illustrated with 100 photos to make it easier to understand. The hand positions for a great variety of health complaints have been listed in detail, making it a valuable reference work for anyone who practices reiki. Now that the original handbook has been translated into English, Dr. Usui's hand positions and healing techniques can be studied directly for the first time. Whether you are an initiate or a master, if you practice Reiki you can expand your knowledge dramatically as you follow in the footsteps of a great healer.

 Usui Mikao Sensei May 25, 2008
0 out of 3 found this review helpful
The Original Reiki Handbook of Dr. Mikao Usui is one of the first Reiki books that I bought when I was starting with my Reiki journey.
Reiki is a Japanese term.
Rei means something mysterious,miraculous, and sacred.
Ki means the atmosphere or something subtle or the energy of the universe.
The Japanese words Reiki can be defined as a miraculous and sacred energy of the universe, which sustains all life (Reiki is the name, used by Usui Sensei, for the universal/cosmic energy.)
Frank Arjava Petter is a well respected reasearcher on Reiki not only in the West but also in Japan.
Hyakuten Inamoto Sensei in fact mentioned his name when I was in his Komyo Reiki Kai Shinpiden Training in Toronto, ON.
Komyo Reiki Kai, the system Inamoto Sensei has created, presents Reiki as it was understood and commonly practiced in the 1930's in Japan. This system places emphasis on spiritual enfoldment through the practice of Reiki Ryoho, aiming for "satori" or enlightenment.
Inamoto Sensei learned Reiki from Mrs. Chiyoko Yamaguchi who had trained with Chujiro Hayashi, one of Usui Sensei's original students.
***This is a book worth checking out by a beginning Reiki pratitioner. My only comment is on the title of the book "The Original Reiki Handbook of Dr. Mikao Usui" It's somewhat misleading, it's probably better if instead of doctor, the word should be Sensei which is a more appropriate title.
A simple question..... October 5, 2007

It is well known today that Usui Mikao was many things in his life - but a Doctor was not one of his professions. With the title of this book listing Usui Mikao as a Doctor, it casts doubt on the contents if the author did not know this simple fact.
The "Dr." title was a bit of fiction created by the Takata linage of Reiki (Usui Shiki Ryoho)
I give it 3 stars because I really dont know if this is fact or fiction.
 A great addition to your Reiki library. March 28, 2007

I found this book to be incredibly useful in my Reiki practice. Even though I had the manuals from my Reiki Master, this book helped to fill in some of the gaps. I still refer to it from time to time.

I was given this book by my Reiki Master in Level I. This lifestyle has completely transformed my life, while not interfering with my spiritual beliefs. This is a great addition to whatever culture or religion we believe in.
Great Reference Book February 1, 2007

This is a full-colour book that details with photographs the hands positions used in Reiki. It's only 80 pages long, but it's perfect for what it is. It covers all part of the body, including the head, the vertebrae and the kidneys. Essential little reference book if you practice or teach Reiki.
